Bimax rasied my hyoid bone

- Before even the CBCT couldn't see it because it was too low.

Hyoid bone position after surgical mandibular advancement - PubMed

A cephalometric evaluation of the changes in the horizontal and vertical placement of the hyoid bone and of those in the position of the head over the cervical spine after surgical mandibular advancement was undertaken. Seven linear and one angular measurement were investigated in 60 patients...

- With mewing, chin tucking, fast-jaw opening exercise it will raised the hyoid bone even more

FAST JAW OPENING EXERCISE
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5784581/pdf/cia-13-125.pdf

• This study original purpose was to improve swallowing,[ISPOILER] so for the gay NI🅱🅱AS that like to swallow, good for you.[/ISPOILER]
• Anyways, even tho this was tested on old people (age 74.0±5.7) I can imagine this also be working on youncels and being very effective for people with really bad hyoid bone. Through this exercise of the mandible movement this contributes to muscle hypertrophy and improves muscle tone, especially of the mylohyoid muscle wich is connected to the hyoid bone wich.
• Exercise: The exercise schedule consisted of 3 sets of 20 repetitions each of rapid and maximum jaw-opening movement with a 10-second interval between sets. The exercise was performed twice daily for 4 weeks.
  • Result: There was a significant increase in the vertical position of the hyoid bone at rest.
  • Furthermore, during swallowing, the elevation of the hyoid bone and the velocity of its movement and esophageal sphincter opening increased significantly while the duration of the hyoid elevation and the pharyngeal transit time reduced significantly.

Nice. Mine is low too. Hope my bimax will make a big difference

 

[Deleted member 18582]

Congrats op. Im excited for bimax to raise mine too. We can be hyoid people

 

[anticel]

yeah it s the reason for low hyoid bone in the 1st place.

how much rotation did you get with your bimax? looks like it made you more downgrown kek

If you look carefully you could see in the after picture that my teeth did not touch each other, thus giving the illusion of downward grown. The reason I didn't keep my occlusion together was because I was too swelled literally I got forced to do CBCT scan 1 week after the surgery. I knew this question would come up but didn't want to include in the OP post.

it doesn't seem like he got any ccw rotation, just followed the natural curve of the mandible

just noticed it, makes more sense now

I got slight cw rotation because of short face syndrome I had. I wish I can get ccw but my base wasn't made for that.

 

[ScramFranklin]

Are you happy with your jaw surgery results?

 

[๕ඞChick3ncu1ry]

It's alright could be better could be worse. It just replicate the looks of when I perma jutt when I hasn't got the surgery.

Yeah

Pretty sure you can just use a silicone straw and do the same thing.

Worth a shot anyway 60 bucks is a lot for a bottle JFL

Yeah

do you think this might be an effect of cw rotation as opposed to ccw?
if you are rotating cw wouldnt the hyoid come up more, but with ccw it goes down?

I already tested no. It’s very detailed the strenght and length and dimension of the silicon have to be perfect in every mm to create the effect.

no with ccw rotation you create more space. The natural position of the hyoid is under your tongue but it gets pushed down if your maxilla grows vertically and creates a lack of space!

 

[๕ඞChick3ncu1ry]

Yeah I know all of that but that’s in terms of functionality aspect. I am talking about harmony /aesthetics frontal and side profile views. ccw would make my sfs even shorter I will look a toad prob

uhm no i think ccw would help you but your ramus would have to be longer. are u happy with your bimax result?

 

[longjohnmong]

How is your eye area? (not after bimax but just in general)

[๕ඞChick3ncu1ry]
